Abstract: If the development of the links between local authorities is indisputable today, several aspects make a process subject to controversies. Besides the absence of relevance of certain perimeters of public establishments of intermunicipal cooperation (PEIC) and the increase of the tax pressure which it was able to arouse, this dynamics also examines about the nature of the constant relationships between the municipalities and their organizations in the exercise of the diverse skills. The branch of physical and sports activities is used here as analyzer of these exchanges, the law of July 12th, 1999 (?Chevènement?s? law) having effectively allowed the sport to become, notably, in conglomeration, a legitimate object of public action. The institutionalization of a community sports action becomes more marked in a context where the commitment of municipalities on the subject is not only former but also source, for them, of symbolic and identical profit. The object of this study, more particularly focused on the conglomeration of the Bassin d?Arcachon Sud (COBAS) is to examine the impact of the ?Chevènement?s? law on the management of the community sports action and on the nature of the relations between municipalities and the PEIC.
